  1. Is Fabelzel 3D files that we could buy? Haven't looked into them other than seeing their sculpts, which are AWESOME! Nice paintjobs on those. The magma cannon looks like a Forgeworld one? Working on my Troll Horde for now, but have some big-hats in the mail from the UK, and then I can get the Core done, and finish my warmachine and other conversions/kitbashes. Gotta figure out how to make some old-school looking Kdaai Fireborn. I think those could prove useful.
  2. Khul Ascendant was in a vision of a Slaughterpriest when they were in battle in one of the stories on WHC I think? Pretty darn cool, and I very much expect that after the year of the index, the next Khorne tome will have him go the way of Angron in 40k.
  3. Guess I'm just not eager to paint all the Night Goblins. I might be painting a bunches of Skaven, and I know I'll be painting bunches of Chaos Dwarfs
  4. I picked up a box of Fellwaters that someone had exchanged today at GW store, got lucky there. But after reading through this and other forums it does seem like I'll need to have some non-Troll Shaman or two in there as well. On Goonhammer they suggest perhaps a Level 4 Weirdnob with some Boar-boyz. Those might look good with some swampy and or crystalline cavern bases; I could see boars sniffing around for mushrooms or something. Was also thinking perhaps Spider Rider screens but are those Night Goblins? The Old World Builder app doesn't have all the restrictions built in. This coming week I think I can get the OG Almanack. I just have so many Troggoths from AOS that I feel highly compelled to run them in both games, similar to Daemons who could be in 3 different games if cleverly magni-based. Though I guess Night Goblins could also do that. Shame that they can't hang with Trolls in the Old World though 😛
  5. Wasn't there a thing where we can fill ranks with a couple bases worth of decorative stuff and it's alright rules-wise or something? That would help round out the scenic vistas of foetid swampyness for my River Trolls.
  6. As much amazing hobby goes into AOS stuff, I think because of the different basing with trays and 'fillers' we will see even more amazing amounts of hobby go into TOW. I know I have much more elaborate plans for my Chaos Dwarfs and Troll Horde.
  7. I had good luck with Slaughter of Sorcery with my Ogor Beastclaw army, but with Eshin I always used Masters of Execution since I had 5-6 Eshin heroes in their all the time. Not sure I'll even be able to use my army in the index season of 4th ed.? BUT I am eager to spam other interesting things in quantities never before permitted, and invent different versions from many many bits. Seems like Skryre will coming in hot.
  8. Next time I'm at my FLGS I gotta get this book.
  9. I always have full confidence that every plan-scheme will go according to plan-scheme! This sounds like a great fun army. I have no idea what that new DOK list does but aelves can stick it. Is Masters of Execution the one where you have to keep your Deathmaster or Slynk alive? That might be difficult, though Deathmasters are easy enough to hide if you don't need them actually do anything.
  10. Maybe the phrases Plague Monks and Night Runners are somehow copyrightable? Doesn't seem correct. I expect the new replacement/similar units to have more unique names and of course new models. So Gutter Runners will become much better looking elite ninja rats, and then we can still use our old metal ones instead on whichever base size they decide to go with. Clan Eshin is always busy in the stories, don't see how they can NOT be in the next tome and edition.
  11. I went 4-0 and got Best Overall! I had Boulderhead/FLOSH w Nullstone Icon and Rockmane Elder/Icebrow General w Pulverizing Hailstorm/2x2 Frost Sabres/Thundertusk Riders w Vulture. I fought an Ironjawz w Mawkrusha and 3x2 GoreGruntas Bloodtoofs. Then did see a Gitz army w Two Aroks and Spider Riders and probably some other little guys, and a nice Trogg army too. I just bought a gigantic Gitz army, definitely eager to do a big Swamp Troll Horde for TOW (Troll Hag on the way from the UK) but will base them for alternate use in AOS too. Bunches of Mangler Squigs also seem highly doable in 4th edition coming up?!? That would be pretty fun.
  12. I'm totally down with the new no-battefield roles other than heroes. How many different types of Doomwheel kitbashings can I come up with? WE SHALL SEE
  13. Cities-humans, KO or Fyreslayers, Sylvaneth, those are all good guy Order factions that could start people off. Stormcast has plenty of details to paint just like all of them. KO and Fyreslayers aren't too bad to assemble for modeling noobs. Stormcast is the most Space Marine like but there are so many other factions stirring the lore-pot these days.
  14. Heck yeah, I'm definitely making the Troll Horde! And possibly just all puking swamp trolls. Maybe with a Colossal Squig as a proxy for a giant (a little surprised that thing isn't in there?). Or do all Trolls puke? I don't have the Arcane Journal yet. I want 2 Hags, but one will need to be kitbashed for uniqueness. Guess I'd pick up that Ogdrugz or whatever his name is too.
  15. Is the Spearhead group of armies going to be fixed to certain units only contained in the boxes called Spearheads? And are the Vanguard boxes equivalent to Spearhead boxes?
  16. Made To Order makes so much sense for all the golden oldies! There's not that much up-front investment, and they don't have to stock anything except metal and the molds since the sale is guaranteed. Some people think next year AOS will get Chaos Dwarf equivalents though, so if that actually happens, TOW players will have proxies at least. I'm not holding my breath though. It would take at least twice as many units than Fyreslayers have to make a right-proper Chorfy faction.
  17. I won't hold my breath for AOS Chaos Dwarves, but I'll blow up a balloon and pop it if that happens! I surgically removed Juggernaut riders and Theridon legs last night to start my Bull Centaurs. I also want to make a Juggernauty type of Great Taurus that can accomodate a removable Daemonsmith-Sorcerer (that old big hat metal guy with hammer and wand). Then I'll have all 3 types and they'll all be very very different but unified with basing, paint jobs, and awesomeness. For my forces the metal big hats and Forgeworld will be in positions of power for the most part. Because so many little ones are so very expensive mostly.
  18. Oh wow, Hobgrots! Those would be perfect, as IIRC they deal with the Chorfs in their lore to get weapons though I think it's a bit murky in detail? If I could put a Wyvern in my list with the other stuff I'd be a happy camper. How do I add a poll?!? I vote HATS
  19. Figured the wickedly bearded need their own section for the smattering of folks who have them. I'm still assembling/converting. -Irondrakes will be Fireglaives. -The old Shartor from Forgeworld will be a Sorcerer-Prophet on Bale Taurus after I put daemon prince wings on him. -Got an old Lammasu wizard and Hthark from Bloodbowl for a Tauruk. -Magma Cannon and Deathshrieker CHECK. Iron Daemon and Skull Cracker and 6 Bull-Centaurs in the works. -Foot Daemonsmith on the way. Hellcannon......apparently stinks so that could be a Dreadquake Mortar (found a metal one and the metal crew, figured might as well). Guess many people say Hobgoblins are good to have in there but just not feeling them right now, or finding any for a decent price. Trying to avoid 3D printing if I can. Perhaps some Black Orcs might be good? Apparently we invented those!
  20. What about Monstrous Cavalry, like Bull-Centaurs? I'm thinking maybe 6 in a line is the way to go? Looks like the Fireglaive Infernal Guard is best in 10-wide MSUs.
  21. The skill of our precious tabletop games is the way we can skew our uncertainties to our favor with choices of units, gear/upgrades, subfactions, movement and target priority. And the fun is when the matchup and/or mission throws all that out with the bathwater and must adapt to new permutations in the enemy forces!
  22. Hmm, hadn't heard about this card system. I wouldn't like that either, just one more bunch of thingies I have to carry around. Wondering what 'costs' there will be for taking a 2nd turn. Casting spells in the opponents' phase suggest they might categorize spells, like defensive, so a spell that grants a ward save or better armor might be like that?
  23. I am one who much prefers a physical book to having to bring a tablet (which I don't even own), or having to look things up on my phone which I have to unlock every time because I don't trust the world to keep it unlocked. That said, I guess I could just print stuff out but the warscrolls in the app are definitely NOT formed with printing on a normal sheet of paper in mind.
  24. It would be only fair for the risk/reward of delving into advanced technology. In the 4th edition trailer the guns hardly hit anything, so assuming that transfers to the rules and they only hit on a 4+, they should hit everything in 6" when they die.
  25. I am very hopeful that in the next iteration of we rat-folk that if/when we blow up, we take others with us like the golden-sky-men, or blood-red-maniacs do!
